Today, Hunter sat down with longtime death penalty abolitionist activist Abraham Bonowitz. On previous episodes about death penalty abolition, the show has primarily focused on the successes and failures of the fight in the court room. Today however, Abe joins the show to discuss the types of media campaigns and coalition building that is necessary to fight and ultimately abolish the death penalty outside of the four corners of the court house.

  There are a lot of reasons that the death penalty is almost never imposed anymore. Not only is it hugely and uniquely expensive to apply and proven to be of no use in deterring crime, but stacks of evidence also confirm it has long been applied unjustly. Tragically, the death penalty is mostly reserved […]

Biden commutes sentences of 37 federal death row prisoners President Biden used his clemency authority Monday to commute the sentences of 37 of the 40 men on federal death row to life without parole, in one of the most significant moves taken against capital punishment in recent presidential history. Biden did not commute the sentences of three men who were involved in cases of terrorism or hate-fueled mass murder, including Robert Bowers, convicted for the 2018 mass shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue; Dylann Roof, convicted for the 2015 mass shooting at a Black church in Charleston, S.C.; and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev,... View Article

The president spares 37 of the 40 inmates facing the federal death penalty, commuting their sentences to life in prison. Is this an appropriate use of the pardon power, issuing mass clemency based on policy disagreements with the law? Will this action in Biden's last days in office, so soon after he pardoned his son Hunter, add to the arguments for a constitutional amendment? Learn more about your ad choices.

Scott McFarland, congressional correspondent for CBS News, joins Chris & Nate to talk about the recent rhetoric from Trump on the Panama Canal, the fall out surrounding the ethics report on former Representative Matt Gaetz, how the weaponization of the justice department--perceived or real--could be just the beginning and Biden's run on clemencies.

Josh Hammer explains a novel legal theory, put forward earlier this week by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), that suggests Joe Biden's 37 federal death row inmate commutations this week are actually null and void. Could this possibly be right? Josh also explains the potent symbolism and serendipity of Christmas and Chanukah falling on the same day this year. Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah to all! Learn more about your ad choices.

Community Editorial Board Editor Mercy Quaye hosts an in-depth conversation on probation, parole and commutations with State Sen. Heather Somers, Community Editorial Board member Marisol Garcia and victims advocate Audrey Carlson.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Host Mike Merli speaks with Attorney Alex Taubes and Bridgeport resident Clifford Holly. The discussion examines the Commutations Process in Connecticut: what it is, how it works, and the recent history of Commutations as an avenue for clemency for people incarcerated in Connecticut. A recent press conference organized by Republican lawmakers on March 7th called for the state of Connecticut to "slow down" the commutations of prison sentences. In response, many are speaking out in support of incarcerated people having a second chance at freedom and life, and speaking out in support of Carlton Giles and Connecticut's current Commutations Policy and Process. Tomorrow, 10am on Monday March 20, 2023, there will be a hearing in Room 2-C at the Legislative Office Building (300 Capitol Avenue, Hartford) regarding the re-appointment of Carlton Giles as the Chair of the Board of Pardons and Paroles. Written Testimonies are being accepted until Tuesday March 21, 2023 regarding Connecticut Senate Bill 952 (https://www.cga.ct.gov/asp/cgabillstatus/cgabillstatus.asp?selBillType=Bill&bill_num=SB00952&which_year=2023). Testimonies may be submitted at https://www.cga.ct.gov/aspx/CGATestimonySub/CGAtestimonysubmission.aspx?comm_code=jud. The Public Hearing for SB 952 will be taking place at 10am also in Room 2-C on Wednesday March 22, 2023.

EPISODE 95: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: You'll be happy to know that Kevin McCarthy, whose only gift is making up excuses for the violent, insane, anti-democracy, murderous, treacherous, traitorous, seditious mob otherwise known as "The Republican Party," has reassured us that when Marjorie Taylor Greene said SHE would've "won" the January 6th Coup, she was just being "facetious." (2:11) So now, what rationalization will he come up with Rep. Ralph Norman and his text of 1/17/21 urging that Trump get busy "invoking Marshall (sic) Law!?" There's quite a few of these McCarthy needs to excuse: the Republicans who want to hang Democrats, who want to hang them from cranes, or put them before firing squads. What words might he choose? (7:05) And how would he describe what Trailer Park Greene asked Laura Loomer to find out about McCarthy's own "affairs"? (8:19) And what word would we use if McCarthy grew a pair and acted to expel Marjorie Taylor Greene under the Rebellion Clause of the 14th Amendment? B-Block (11:55) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Zenith in New York (13:00) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Senate progress to close the coup loophole? Commutations in Oregon. And the Drag Show Must Go On. (14:46) IN SPORTS: The NBA does an odd job in suddenly naming all its awards after its greatest players. How is a guy who played in nine finals and lost eight of them, to be the face of the "Clutch" Award? And this raises the question of re-naming hockey awards. If the people for whom they are named are not worthy, you should find new faces, yes? That means the racist Conn Smythe. Does it also mean the colonialist anti-native Lord Stanley? (19:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Brittney Griner's situation is original but not unique as The Wall Street Journal claims; many ex-prisoner athletes have played again - including one who played in the country that imprisoned him!

Throwback Clip on Trump's Commutations

Oregon Governor Kate Brown has granted more pardons and commutations than any governor in recent state history. Aliza Kaplan is a law professor at Lewis & Clark and directs the Criminal Justice Reform Clinic. For the last six years Kaplan and her students been working to get applications to Brown. The former inmates granted clemency were guilty, she says, but they are extraordinary individuals and have demonstrated that they can be contributing members of the community. For those who were already out of prison but were denied housing or jobs based on their convictions, a pardon clears their way forward. We talk with Kaplan and with two men granted clemency by the governor, Larry Turner and Tacuma Jackson.

Lastly, Dr. JD explains how "implicit" clemency has allowed judges like those in Sumter County, Florida to commit the most egregious hate crimes and domestic terrorism in the name of white supremacy the nation has ever seen.

President Donald Trump announced a spree of pardons and sentence commutations that continued his track record of using his clemency powers on controversial figures. A president's clemency power is sweeping — he or she can decide to legally forgive or free anyone convicted of federal crimes, removing any remaining punishments and restoring their rights. Commutations, on the other hand, merely reduce a prisoner's sentence. What's the relationship between marijuana, race, and presidential pardons? You have to watch this video to find out.

Trump pardoned and commuted a host of white-collar criminals. Tax expert Stanley Langbein dives into the presidential get-out-of-jail-free card. Recorded on February 20, 2020.

Listen to the Trumpet Daily radio program that aired on February 19, 2020. Visit: www.thetrumpet.com/stephen-flurry [02:15] Plagues (8 minutes) Swarms of locusts are devouring crops in East Africa. Record winds in California. Fires and floods in Australia. Earthquakes in diverse places. Volcanic eruptions in the Philippines and New Zealand. One would think we’re living in the last days! [10:00] Media Hype Barr-Trump Feud (15 minutes) Democrats and their media accomplices are doing everything they can to drive a wedge between William Barr and President Donald Trump. [26:00] Pardons and Commutations (5 minutes) President Trump pardoned and commutated the sentences of several prisoners yesterday, causing the Democrat media complex to howl in protest. More proof of Trump derangement syndrome. Not that long ago, they were celebrating when Barack Obama released violent criminals—even Iranian terrorists! [30:00] Logan Act Violation? (8 minutes) When Michael Flynn was transitioning into the White House, he had a phone call with the Russian ambassador. The Obama administration decided Flynn’s call was a violation of the centuries-old, rarely used, Logan Act. At the time, U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy was one of the biggest proponents of prosecuting Gen. Michael Flynn under that obscure act. Over the weekend, Murphy secretly met with Iran’s foreign minister, Javad Zariff. [38:30] The Faith of Christ 17 minutes) Jesus Christ asked if He would “find faith on the earth” when He returned. We’re living in the time just before Christ’s return and the lack of faith around the world is evident. In this segment, I talk about the true definition of faith and what you can do to build faith.

Matt and Storm are back in studio after a short hiatus. The guys discuss the latest Democratic primary polls showing Joe Biden is in serious trouble and preview the Democratic debate in Las Vegas, where there will be a new face and target on stage. They also cover President Trump's latest round of pardons and commutations.

President Trump on Tuesday handed out a slew of pardons and commutations ranging from former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich to former San Francisco 49ers owner Edwards DeBartolo. Specifically with the former governor, he was sentenced to 14 years for corruption charges including trying to sell an appointment to Barack Obama's old senate seat in exchange for campaign contributions. He served a little over half of his sentence and Trump said he had been treated very unfairly. Brett Samuels, White House reporter at The Hill, joins us for more. Next, we talk about a man named Derek Murphy who has an unusual hobby. He exposes cheaters in marathons and other endurance races. He runs a website called MarathonInvestigations.com and uses a variety of techniques to root out those that have cheated. One such runner that he outed was Frank Meza, 70 year-old doctor who got caught cheating in the Los Angeles Marathon last year. Unfortunately, Meza later killed himself after he was exposed because he could no longer stand the scrutiny. Derek Murphy says he was not targeting Meza just that he wanted to maintain the integrity of the sport. Still his website is filled with many instances of others cheating the system. Gordy Megroz, contributor to Wired, joins us for more on the man that catches marathon cheaters.

On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner podcast, the two big topics are Trump's pardons and the Economy. Specifically Sam and Ivan talk about the grand plan, or lack thereof, surrounding the pardons and what messages that sends. On the economy, the questions are how much credit Trump should get for good unemployment numbers, does it matter that he tweeted about those results before they came out, and what's up with the big trade war that seems to be getting started? Along the way, they also cover a health issue in Sam's family, the Puerto Rican death toll, a little on the Trump/Cohen investigations, and the general trend toward US isolation.

Lamont Banks, Cliff Stewart, and Lisa Stewart of the Colorado exoneration firm A Just Cause discuss what happens when the wheels of justice trample unbridled over the rights of innocent Americans.   Although the American system of justice is the most-respected worldwide, it is still a system designed, and operated, by humans, which means it's not perfect. Lamont, Cliff, and Lisa will highlight ongoing struggles against "the system" and what happens when justice miscarries against our American citizens. Tonight, our AJC Radio Hosts will discuss the Clemency process and how it is often being denied to help right grave injustices being adjudicated daily, against American citizens all over the United States.

In this week's episode, Aaron looks at the super reform changes that have had a profound impact on partial commutations.  Prior to these new measures, members had a far greater level of flexibility with both TRISs and Account Based Pensions where benefit payments could be re-characterised for income tax purposes, including having these amounts count towards minimum pension obligations.  The legislation even extended as far to allow for 'in-specie pension payments' through the appropriate process of making elections under the Income Tax Regulations.   Now with the new superannuation measures in play, times have changed and Aaron explains just how these strategies have been impacted, but discusses new ideas and concepts for consideration with partial commutations for transfer balance cap purposes.
